2015 Ford F-150 consumer reviews

Im totally in love with my 2015 F-150. I got the Supercrew FX4 Lariat with the panoramic sunroof. This is my dream truck that I plan on keeping for 12+ years. My family has always had Ford's and I recently went to a Ram about 2 years ago because I work for Chrysler. The Ram was fine just missed my roots which was being in a good ol' Ford. The aluminum body makes the truck pretty light if you have owned or driven a previous model F-150 you will notice the difference. This truck has features that I will probably never even use but are nice to have and I am sure will come in handy one day. Only thing I am not liking at this point is the gas mileage my Ram which was a diesel was getting better MPG. My F-150 is averaging about 16 mpg which about 90 percent of my driving is stop and go which I guess is not all that bad. Hopefully it improves over time when the truck is broken in. Only have had the truck 3 weeks with a little over 1K miles. But overall if you are looking at getting a full size truck this is it... hands down. F-150 is your truck. Fords have been in my family for years they have never missed a beat. Check the F-150 out you will not be dissapointed.

Totally disappointed with the ride with the FX4 package. Rough on the highway, the entire truck is jittery. My wife felt car sick after an hour on the highway. Too much hard plastic everywhere. If you like to bend your left leg while driving it hits the door panel. Tow mirrors are way too far out. I'm just waiting to have one hit by somebody. Sad but after a week I'm thinking about what I'll buy next. I'm sure I'll lose a lot of money trading it in so soon. If you test drive one make sure you try it on a rough road. Wish I had listened to CR, they said it was rough.. 2.7L is a great idea but start/stop is annoying.

I have the 2015 Ford F150 Lariat Super Crew 4x4 FX4 package with the 5 1/2 foot bed = 145" wheel base. I traded in a 2009, same model except had the 6 1/2 foot bed = 157" wheel base; there is no comparing the ride; 09 was much better. I have even tried to locate by old truck to by it back! After spending a lot on money for a new truck, the excitement has worn off over the past 4 months. the ride has become more than I can take, I think has a lot to do with the missing weight of the steel body (800 lbs) My uncle told me about a guy who had railroad track beams mounted underneath his truck to add the weight back in. I use a cheap method of 300lbs. of top soil....guess what ... it worked. The ride was much better with the added weight, but then I have no room to use the bed as intended. The solution - going to test drive another truck. very sad to leave the comforts and lose money in the process. I also do not like the inside door panels, as my left knee naturally fits into the design open space under the door handle. When ever I brake my knee gets jammed. The spring for the lid of center console will not keep it open. ***and the AC cool seats suck compared to the 09 version! I am 280lbs and the side step bar broke within the first week.

Bought a new Ford Ecoboost 3.5 V6 Ford 4X4 XLT Sport Crew Cab. Very nice styling, engine has tremendous reserve power, yet is very tractable in city, congested highway excursions. Was being squeezed by a semi-rig at an entrance ramp and applied not quite 1/2 throttle, truck "lifted" and launched from 40-75 mph in a blink of an eye! Never had ANY vehicle I've owned accelerate with that kind of authority. Yet if you set cruise for less then 65 mph, mileage N of 24 for reported, and based on fuel consumption and mileage traveled it appears to be no hype (18/25/21 EPA estimates). My wife and I intend to eventually tow for wheels down behind our motorhome (42' tag with Class IV hitch); will use a 7500 lb Blue Ox tow bar, receiver system with appropriate breakaways and supplemental braking in PU. NOTE: 4X4 pickups can be recreationally towed 4 wheels down, check owners manual for details and steps to perform this. It is not difficult, but procedure MUST be performed correctly to avoid drive-train or transmission damage. Interior is ergonomic, rear camera is very welcome. This vehicle is big (18' plus long), so pay attention to surroundings. You are sitting high above pavement, which provides a commanding view of road and traffic. All in all a great vehicle!

So far, its a great truck. I've had it three weeks and have put 1,000 miles on it. I have the FX4 with the 501a mid package and wish I would have gotten the Platinum or King Ranch with full leather, lane departure and forward camera. Other than that, so far so good.

F-150 xlt super cab. This truck is amazing! The handling is very responsive and nimble, much improved from previous years. I am averaging 22 MPG at this time which is very impressive for a full size truck. The 2.7 L ecoboost has all the power at the right times and great full economy. I am very satisfied with my purchase and recommend this truck to friends and family in the market for a truck.

I'm a retired Corporate Pilot and I'm fussy. I bought the 2011 Lariat with the 3.5l Eco-boost and did had some problems with the rear-end the 1st 12,000 miles. Ford did step up to the plate and fixed it with no arguments. The Eco-boost engine was flawless with GREAT mileage for a 4-wheel drive pickup. I even pulled a 5,000# camper about 5 times a year with NO-Problems, even in the hills. I loved my pickup. Went to Ford the other day and 'just looking" and low and behold, I bought another 2015 Lariat with the 502a package (traded in the 2011 with 49,000 miles) . The salesman indicated to me "This is a totally different pickup than yours." RIGHT! I DON"T THINK SO in my brain. Yep, you guessed it, I ended up walking out with a new 2015 Lariat. I hate to say, IT is a totally different pickup. I'm impressed. Ford did a GREAT job with this pickup. Trust me, you have to drive one for I still have the 3.5l Eco-boost with great mileage - so far. I burn only straight fuel (no alcohol) with a minimum 89 octane. AGAIN, I'm fussy and I am really impressed.. AGAIN, you owe it to yourself to drive one.

I recently purchased a new truck. To my dismay it was not the F150. As I test drove the other brands (Dodge, Chevy, GMC, Toyota) none of them really spoke to me. I drove an F150 with a bench seat with a straight V6 and was not impressed so the salesman asked me to try out the Lariat. All I had to do was sit in it and I was sold. I am a big guy 300+ lbs and this cabin fit like a glove. It spoke to me like no other. I was super excited and took it for a test drive. I felt the road and the bumps but the salesman told me that it was a stiff suspension because it was new and it was a 4x4. I was super excited to bring my wife with me the next day to take a test drive of the 4x2. I went to the dealer with my checkbook and title to my current truck. I was mentally prepared to pay extra above my target budget to get this truck. We took the V6 turbo 4x2 Lariat for an extended test drive of about 30 min stopping home to show the kids. The entire ride on the highway and on our newly paved side roads I kept asking my wife if she could feel the road and the bumps and the jitter but she said no it was OK. When we got back to the dealership and the salesman was parking the F150 my wife told me the ride sucked, I wasn't crazy, and her back hurt. She didn't want to say anything bad with the salesman in the truck with us. I soon realized my back hurt as well from the bumps and jostling around on smooth roads. I tried and I tried to talk myself and my wife into purchasing the F150 but we couldn't. We just could not spend that kind of $ for a ride this bad. The cost of the F150 is significantly higher locally (TX) than the other brands. We went down the road to our second choice and purchased a truck with the same feature set for less $ but I settled for it. I am happy to have a new truck after 13 years but I'm not super excited. I feel I would have been more excited with the F150 if it would have just rode as good as any of the other brands. It wasn't even close. The ride is called out as the biggest con in many reviews. I am not a brand loyalist. I purchase based on features I want that I determine before I go shopping, comfort, and other professional and owner reviews. Over the last 24 years I've owned a Dodge for 11 years and a Chevy for 13 years. I purchase to get my $ out of the vehicle and I take care of them so they last. I love the look. I love the styling. I love the cabin on the Lariat. I love the 3.5L V6 turbo and the V8. I dislike the price. I hate the ride. The ride is so bad that I could not force myself or talk myself into purchasing the vehicle. If Ford ever fixes the ride I will sell my current truck early and get one. Hopefully, by the time they fix the ride the price will be better too. Ford please fix the ride!!!!

The window sticker says 20/22/26 for city, combined, and highway, I have achieved 20 mpg around town so far after only two weeks of driving and 25mpg on the highway, I am well pleased, compared to my Nissan Frontier of over two years, prior to my purchase of the F150, of only 19.5 mpg overall, v6 compared to 2.7 ltr v6 in XLT. I really like the flat floorboards in rear seating area for greater storage of items like groceries and an area large enough to accommodate a doggy(cat)bed for travel.I would like to see the depth of the under seat area under rear seat be about 2 inches deeper to allow for small tool box. Syncing my phone with bluetooth was very easy, the steering wheel controls for dash display,ease of no hands use of phone , cruise control, all very easy to use with minimum of effort and eye diversion from the road, makes this a good experience. With the 302A package my main complaint, though minor in the overall evaluation, is that even Nissan pickups have a universal garage door opener, this well equipped, excellent comfortable ride, great looking truck, does not, why? Overall I am so pleased so far with this truck.

I recently purchased a 2015 Ford F150 Supercrew Lariat 4WD truck. I test drove a 2015 Toyota Tundra Crewmax and a 2015 Chevrolet Silverado crew cab before purchasing this truck. I previously owned a 1990 Ford F150 regular cab, a 1998 Ford F150 supercab and a 2004 Chevrolet Silverado. This new 2015 Ford F150 Supercrew is an absolutely amazing vehicle. I have the 3.5L ecoboost engine and it has incredible power at low rpm's. So far, I'm averaging 19.5 - 20.9 mpg fuel economy on mostly 2 lane rural road driving. The only negative thing I have to say is that the Silverado provides a smoother ride on rough roads. In spite of this, this Ford F150 is the best truck on the market in my opinion. I really thought I was going to purchase a Tundra or Silverado, until I test drove the Ford. I love this truck! There's a reason they sell more than the other manufacturers!
